Section 1 deals on the basic principles of environmental microbiology.Section 2 discusses the general analytical methodologies.Section 3 contains chapter which address the fact that water often serves as a vehicle in the transmission of pathogenic microbes.Section 4 contains chapters which address general acquatic ecology.Section 5 deals with the soil and plant zone interactions of the terrestial environment of the lithosphere.Section 6 covers the microbiology of deeper subsurface environments and landfills . Section 7 discusses air which serve to transport microbes with their toxic by- products.Section 8 addresses biotransformation and biodegradation .
This manual represents the current state of knowledge in the field of environmental microbiology. The basic principles of environmental microbiology and general analytic methodologies are introduced. The book then details the life course of microorganisms in the environment and describes attempts to eradicate those seen as pathogenic. Core sections are structured with regard to the type of environmental medium being discussed. Intended for university, industry, and government scientists as well as those who regularly conduct environmental monitoring and consulting, it will also serve as an important text for advanced level courses in environmental microbiology and microbial ecology.
